Freeway Guesthouse is a great place to stay if you are looking to see a more local side to Bangkok. The place is like a hotel, cleaned every day and with free water. Much better than previous airbnbs we've stayed in where you have to live in your own filth for the week you've booked. It's quiet, comfortable, the staff are very very friendly and helpful. It's close to Ari and Chatuchak market. We loved it so much we stayed an extra four days! Note: it's cheaper to book in person than with airbnb and their extortionate fees! While it is about 15 mins walk to the BTS, the lane way to the main road has awesome street food in the morning/lunchtime. The coffee shop Ansel + Elliott make great coffee and Simply Retreat nearby is a really clean, beautiful place for Thai massage. Definitely stay here if you're looking for a quiet stay in Bangkok, and keen to see local life in action!
